Answer:

B). Foreshadowing.

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is demonstrated as the literary device that the authors employ to provide a hint or clue to the readers that would indicate a future event or action that is going to take place in the plot of the story. It primarily assists the author in <u>developing dramatic tension or creating suspense as the readers are uncertain and keep guessing and anticipating what would happen next</u>. This helps in arousing the interest of the audience or readers' and elicit the desired reactions and feeling from them.

For example, In Shakespeare's famous love story 'Ro-m-eo and Ju-lie-t', he provides a clue of Ro-m-eo's ultimate destiny(his commitment of sui-cide) through his statement: “My life were better ended by their hate, than death prorogued, wanting of thy love."

in "the-tale heart" by edgar allan poe, what does the beating heart that the narrator hears symbolize ?
djverab [1.8K]
The person narrating has committed a murder and shoved the corpse under his floorboards. As some time passes the heart beat is a glimpse into his insanity, and how he is delusional over hearing non existent sounds. He believes he hears the heart of the person he murdered under the floorboards, which is a delusion, most likely made out of paranoia. When the police come to ask about the victim, the man almost fools them until he breaks down and confesses. He expressed annoyance at the victim earlier, saying that he could not get away from their eye, I believe. He tried to solve this by killing them, but his mind would not let him do so by making up false realities.
